The subject report was distributed at the meeting.

Council was reminded of the agreement to vary the order of business, as follows:

consider Report 11.1

consider related Closed Session matters

consider Community & Public Services Committee Minutes Item 10.3

Staff responded to questions from Council on the following topics:

requirements for conditional building permits

pedestrian access to the site

potential for offsite parking

restrictions for vehicular and pedestrian access from the site to Aurora Place

potential indemnity clause to address restrictions for access from Hurontario Street to/from the site if required in future

In response to a question from Council, Peter Fay, City Clerk, confirmed that a motion would be required to request that, before site plan approval, Council be made aware of any indemnity clause to restrict access to/from Hurontario Street, since site plan approval is an authority delegated to staff.

The following motion, moved by Regional Councillor Palleschi, was introduced:

That staff report back to Council, for information purposes, on any indemnity provisions if the City of Brampton chooses to restrict full turning access to the southerly portion of the subject lands.

Subsequently, discussion took place with respect to setting aside the motion for a staff report regarding indemnity provisions until consideration of related Closed Session matters on this topic, and the mover agreed.

Following Closed Session discussions, the motion was withdrawn.

Report

Corporate Services Committee The Corporation of the City of Brampton

2016-10-19

Date: 2016-09-16

Subject: Integration of Recorded Votes onto the City of Brampton

Website and the Implications of Requiring a Recorded Vote for

Every Non-procedural Motion Considered by Council and Standing Committees

Contact: Peter Fay, City Clerk, City Clerk’s Office, 905.874.2172,

[email protected]

Recommendations:

1. That the report from Peter Fay, City Clerk, City Clerk’s Office, dated

September 16, 2016, to the Corporate Services Committee Meeting of October 19, 2016, re: Integration of Recorded Votes onto the City of

Brampton Website and the Implications of Requiring a Recorded Vote for Every Non-procedural Motion Considered by Council and Standing Committees (File BC.x), be received.

Overview:

This report responds to a Committee request for information about the

implications of requiring mandatory recorded votes at meetings for Council and Standing Committees, and a request to post recorded vote information on the City’s website.

This report advises that information is now available on the City’s

website disclosing recorded vote information for the current term of Council.

This report achieves the Strategic Plan priority area of Good Government by providing enhanced information about Council and Committee

decision-making to facilitate transparent and accountable government.

Background:

At its April 6, 2016 meeting, the Corporate Services Committee considered and passed the following Resolution:

8.1-1

CS042-2016 Whereas Brampton City Council has made significant strides to be more accountable and transparent with examples such as our lobbyist registry and gift registry; and

Whereas the City of Brampton has taken steps to provide access to

Council meetings online and through YouTube; and Whereas other large municipalities use a form of electronic voting to

document important votes for the public record; and

Whereas electronic voting is a simple and organized method which would assist the public in knowing how Councillors vote at the City of Brampton;

Now Therefore Be It Resolved that staff be directed to report at a

future meeting on the integration of electronically recorded votes onto the City of Brampton’s website as a database after each Council and Committee meeting;

And further that the Clerk be directed to report back on the

implications of requiring a recorded vote for every non-procedural motion considered by Council and standing committees at its meetings.

(Approved by Council Resolution C122-2016)

This report responds to Committee’s direction. Current Situation:

Section 246 (1) of the Municipal Act, 2001, requires the Clerk to record the name and vote of every Member when a recorded vote is requested during a meeting.

Recorded vote 246. (1) If a member present at a meeting at the time of a vote requests immediately before or

after the taking of the vote that the vote be recorded, each member present, except a member who is disqualified from voting by any Act, shall announce his or her vote openly and the clerk shall record each vote. 2001, c. 25, s. 246 (1).

While meeting minutes include any recorded vote taken during a meeting and form

the official meeting record for Council decision-making, very few municipalities (e.g., City of Toronto and Town of Aurora) publish separate and distinct tables of recorded votes extracted from meeting minutes.

Amending the Procedure By-law to require a recorded vote for every non-procedural

motion considered during a meeting will make meetings unnecessarily longer. Presuming a recorded vote takes approximately 30 seconds to process from the time

the Chair calls for the vote to the vote results declaration, compared to about five (5)

8.1-2

seconds for the Chair to simply call for and declare the outcome of a vote on a motion by a show of hands, it is estimated an additional eight (8) hours of meeting time would be required over a typical year to process recorded votes at Council and

Standing Committee meetings. Requiring recorded votes for all non-procedural motions would also substantially increase the length of meeting minutes by about

25%. Requiring mandatory recorded votes, where consensus and agreement is clear from

the Committee or Council debate, adds unnecessary delay to a meeting. Members always have the right to request a recorded vote, and the Procedure By-law

mandates the meeting chair to take a recorded vote on any motion when requested by a Member.

If Committee wishes to begin requiring a mandatory recorded vote for every non-procedural motion considered at a meeting, an amendment to the Procedure By-law

is required, including the provision of public notice to amend the By-law. In response to Committee’s request, as of September 23, 2016, all recorded votes

from Council and Standing Committee meetings this term of Council have been posted to the City’s website. The Clerk’s Office will continue to post recorded vote

information on the City’s website after the completion of every meeting cycle. The table of recorded votes is a reference table only and does not constitute the official meeting record, which remains the meeting minutes.

An excerpt from the recorded vote table is attached as Appendix 1 to this report, for

Committee reference. The online recorded votes page is available on the City’s website at: http://www.brampton.ca/EN/City-Hall/Council-Committees/Pages/Term-of-Council-Recorded-Votes.aspx.

Corporate Implications:

Financial Implications:

There are no direct financial implications from this report. If Committee does

recommend to Council an amendment to the Procedure By-law to require mandatory recorded votes for non-procedural motion voting, it is estimated that approximately

eight (8) additional hours of meeting time and meeting support will be required. Other Implications:

N/A Strategic Plan:

This report achieves the Strategic Plan priority area of Good Government by

providing enhanced information about Council and Committee decision-making to facilitate transparent and accountable government.

Conclusion:

Requiring mandatory recorded votes for non-procedural matters will add

unnecessary delay to meetings. Members can request a recorded vote for any motion voted on during a meeting. The Clerk’s Office has started posting to the

City’s website additional reference information regarding recorded votes extracted from meetings minutes for the current term of Council.

12. Other/New Business 12.1. Discussion at the request of Regional Councillor Medeiros, re: Lottery

Licensing Fees for Seniors Groups Operating Bingo Events on City Property.

Regional Councillor Medeiros introduced a motion regarding the waiving of the mandatory bingo license fee for seniors groups hosting bingo events on City property.

different seniors groups – one at Flower City Seniors and one at Knightsbridge Seniors Centre, and a requirement of each license is a licensing fee ($45 per bingo event) as set out in the lottery licensing by-law, but the by-law does not allow discretion for waiving that fee;

Therefore be it resolved, that the Clerk’s Office staff be requested to review Lottery Licensing By-law 121-2012, in consultation with Legal Services, to identify opportunities and implications to amend the by-law to waive the mandatory bingo license fee of $45 per bingo event as it relates specifically to non-profit seniors organizations conducting a licensed bingo event on City property, and report back to Committee on this matter.

11.1 Emil Kolb, Former Regional Chair, Region of Peel, Letter Dated October 5, 2016 (Communication)

Overview:

Emil Kolb’s letter and presentation proposes to annex a portion of land in Vaughan and add it to the Bolton Settlement in an effort to address new growth.

12.1 Proposed Provincial Consultation on Expanding Medical Response Through Fire Services (Comments Provided by Michael Clark, Fire Chief, Brampton Fire & Emergency Services)

Overview:

In June 2016, the Ontario Government announced plans to consult on the possibility of allowing full-time firefighters to provide patient care as paramedics when both an ambulance and fire truck are dispatched in tiered response conditions.

The Association of Municipalities of Ontario raised concerns from a municipal perspective about the proposed model and has highlighted there are more pressing emergency response issue that need to be addressed, such as dispatch reform.

Dr. Sheldon Cheskes, Medical Director for Peel Regional Paramedic Services was asked to provide his input on the government’s announcement whether to expand pre-hospital medical responses through fire services. He concluded that:

o The system in Peel is amongst the best in the world and therefore no need to change the system; and

o Areas with fire-based systems has not demonstrated it can provide the same standard of care.

Response from Brampton Fire & Emergency Services:

Staff concurs with the recommendation that the Region should not support further exploration of alternative models of emergency medical response.

Brampton Fire & Emergency Services endeavors to provide the highest level of service to residents, while maintaining fiscal responsibility.

In delivering emergency medical response outside the hospital environment, Brampton Fire & Emergency Services works in partnership with Peel Regional Paramedic Services.

In exploring opportunities to improve the level of emergency medical response, Brampton Fire & Emergency Services consults regularly with the Medical Director of the Region of Peel, the Chief of the Peel Paramedic Services, the Fire Chief of Mississauga Fire & Emergency Services and the Fire Chief of Caledon Fire & Emergency Services.

Will continue to advocate for changes that improve the level of emergency medical response to the residents of Brampton. The Fire Medic model proposed by the OPFFA provides such an improvement and should not be pursued in Brampton at this time.
